Candle burning instructions for scented gel candles - the first time you light a candle is the most important. It allows your candle to get started right and provide the longest burn times possible.
When you are going to burn your gel candle for the first time, it is important to follow some simple instructions. At Gellite Candles we feel that it is best to light your candle, let it burn for 15 to 20 minutes and then blow it out. At this point, trim the wick down to 1/8" to 1/4" and relight.
At this point, the candle should be good to burn for 3-4 straight hours with no additional trimming necessary. Then when you extinguish your candle again, simply trim the wick again to the recommended height.
If any of the wick material falls into the candle, it is best to remove it while it is still melted. This can be done with the tip of a pair of scissors, or any clean stick such as a coffee stir stick. Just be sure that the candle is out before doing so.
